Student Blog Written By: Jacob Hadden, Fellows
The Lord has taught me this year what it means to fully surrender my life and submit to him in all areas. This may be time, money, relationships, or even simply sleep.
I have learned this through practicing spiritual habits and a healthy Christian community. For a long time, I have just wanted parts of God and not really embraced the fullness of him. This is a huge aspect of God I have been able to learn this year. Not just seeking a fragrance of God but seeking the fullness of God. For this to take place, a step in this is surrender. John 3:30 says, “I must decrease so he can increase.” It must take putting to death our old self, and this is really hard, especially if you are someone like me who tends to give God one hand and the other is holding on to the things of this world that may seem to satisfy me.
Trust is also a huge part of living in the fullness that God offers. Trust is saying that God can do it bigger and better than I ever could, and I believe in that. I believe in it enough to give him my life. I have lacked nothing since giving my life to the Lord, and that’s a promise he has made and fulfilled.
Impact 360 has played a huge part in helping me believe these things. He has shown his faithfulness time and time again through opening doors for me to experience God as I have never experienced him before. I am a living testimony of a loving God, and I am a small part of his big story.
